Kukah Centre in collaboration with Global Peace Foundation Nigeria has called for improved synergy between security agencies and religious leaders to promote peaceful co-existence in Kaduna State.
“We felt that the relationship between religious leaders and security agencies was missing. Most of our people confide in their religious leaders when it comes to security issues, we are building that relationship. we want the security agencies and faith leaders to synergies in finding solution,” country director, Global Peace Foundation, Rev John Joseph Hayab said during a one-day dialogue for strengthening synergy between religious leaders and security agencies in Kaduna yesterday.
Hayab advised the security agencies to build trust and confidence of the people in order to get the intelligent information needed in fighting insecurity.
Hayab said “The willingness of security agencies to openly work with people is what is missing in our country. When people see something, they are not saying something in Nigeria because they are afraid of not being safe. The security agencies should build trust and confidence of the people they are securing”.
